@Winger and then our coach decided to unnecessarily bench the likes of Coles. Holland is just so far out of his depth, get rid of the knob.
I’m sick of us not reaching our potential because of this idiot.
What coach doesn’t sub a hooker at around 60mins, and for an AB no less?
Are you and others really comparing fringe AB Aumoa to one of the best ever AB hookers? Or are you just on the wind up?

I’m saying it’s a 23 man game, and if you can’t sub an AB hooker after an hour for another AB hooker then you are in deep shit.
Its not just the coach, players aren’t delivering.

It's only a 23 man game if you have a really strong squad. Blindly subbing your best players off at a crucial part of a knockout match is just really poor coaching. We wouldn't accept it from the AB coaches in a knockout game (e.g. subbing A Smith), why should Canes fans accept it from our coach?
If Coles really couldn't last another minute then they could have at least left TJP out there. It was absolutely braindead stuff from the coaches.

Haha, hilarious. What did he do other than kick Garry Owens?
Hooper the stand out. Then White

Holland is not a Super Rugby level head coach, it’s as simple as that. He got there by mistake.
I will be pissed off if he’s there next year. He doesn’t deserve to be head coach of this club.

If the Blues lose to the Brumbies….
I got the team I wanted in the Semifinals. Let’s see how well they travel to Eden Park.
You got the team I wanted.
I was quite happy a few weeks back when it looked like the Chiefs would be in your side of the draw!

Rather avoid NZ teams until we have to play them. Have fun with the chiefs!

Well as a Canes'man you should know he's signed for next year. I not sure how good or bad he is, I do know realistically even as a Canes'man I know we haven't got the cattle to go deeper into the comp than we have. Unfortunately doesn't matter how I look at it Canes are a team of reasonable super players, with the likes of JB, Ardie and sometimes TJP carrying the team, and we get an occasional flash of something from a few of the other players to excite us. It's what it is, we surely need to find some solid big tighties, so I will just keep supporting them and hope a few good young ones come through.
Will add I was quite comfortable with Brumbies win, they were clearly better team, I was disappointed we didn't get upset, but not overly upset, as it was a pretty fair result and where the both teams are . -

Unsure why but the players have declined under Holland. Thankfully we still have a few good one. Like Barrett Savea and Perenara. I hope we can hold onto them all and others who are close to AB quality. Esp Barrett who might be tempted by offers from the Blues or Crusaders
I hope somehow what I see as a slow Canes decline can be stopped. I don't think Holland will be able to do it but who else is there. I felt confident 5-10 years back that we could retain our best players (and attract the most promising) but now Im unsure.
B Barrett, a key player, leaving was worse than I imagined. It sends a messsage. Blues is where its at. Not the Canes. We must hold onto Jordie at all costs. If he jumps ship and joins another NZ team this messsage will be amplified
Going overseas is different. But smart move by the Blues. They were in a position to go after a key award winning AB and they suceeded.
